[PATCH v3 0/4] Converter R-Car DU to the DRM bridge connector helper

Hello,

This patch series converts the R-Car DU driver to use the DRM bridge
connector helper drm_bridge_connector_init().

The bulk of the v1 series was converting the adv7511, simple-bridge and
dw-hdmi drivers to make connector creation optional (through the
DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR flag), and have already been merged. v2
included the remaining patches and has bitrotten. v3 rebased the code
and should be ready for merge.

Patch 1/4 adds support to the dw-hdmi driver to attach to a downstream
bridge if one is specified in DT. As the DT port number corresponding to
the video output differs between platforms that integrate the dw-hdmi
(some of them even don't have a video output port, which should probably
be fixed, but that's out of scope for this series), the port number has
to be specified by the platform glue layer.

Patch 2/4 then addresses the rcar-lvds driver. Instead of implementing
direct support for DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR, it simply removes
code that shouldn't have been in the driver in the first place by
switching to the panel bridge helper.

Patch 3/4 specifies the port number in the R-Car dw-hdmi glue layer, as
required by 1/4.

Patch 4/4 finally makes use of the drm_bridge_connector_init() helper.

The series has been tested on the Renesas R-Car Salvator-XS and Draak
boards with the VGA, HDMI and LVDS outputs.
